step by step Guide
Step 1
For this demonstration, we will be using our Hario Mizudashi Cold Brew Coffee Maker.
Using a mason jar works equally well.
Prepare your coffee maker by placing your coffee basket into the jug.
Add 85g of coarsely ground coffee into the basket and 1 litre of water directly on top of the coffee grounds.
Slowly stir the coffee a little so that it blooms and mixes with the cold water better and close the lid.
Place in the fridge for 15 to 18 hours.
Step 2
Take out of the fridge, open the lid and remove the coffee basket.
Get a either a latte spoon or coffee paddle and give your cold brew a vigorous stir this is because your coffee would be more dense at the bottom.
Close lid and serve in a tumbler with ice. If you find the coffee a bit strong you can always dilute your cold brew with a bit of water.
If you’ve used a mason jar for the cold extraction process then you simply need to stir the coffee and use either a muslin cloth or coffee filter paper and a new jug to clean out your cold brew from any coffee residue.
